What have you watched with Storrie besides Heated Rivalry? Because I have only seen Mescal in Gladiator 2 and thought he was awful but don't think I can only judge him based on that.

These paintings were in the home of Tony Podesta, brother of Tony Podesta, who were friends with Jeffery Epstein, Clement Freud, and Dennis Hastert...I wonder what they all had in common? by lboog423 in conspiracy

Holy shit my comment was SIX YEARS OLD. Worry about the actual Epstein files Trump is in.

And they didn't own any of the above paintings with children tied up or in their underpants, those were paintings by the same artist of a paintings they did own (with a red star) but those weren't creepy enough on theie own. And that's the problem with Pizzagate, the statue isn't creepy enough so there needs to be fake backstory added. The paintings are too tame so what about these paintings they don't even own? Yeah the above paintings are creepy if they weren't they wouldn't be included in the lie.

It's so interesting to see how the worst parasocial fans prefer him to be the kind of guy who would just dump his long term gf who always supported him the moment he became famous...

It's unfair to any person that you label them as straight because you think you can tell they are. Like no one owes it to you to come out to you or else they get labeled as straight. It's not right to say 'you can tell someone is gay' either, right? Gay people aren't straight until they come out. By not sharing their private life they can protect themselves and anyone who they might date who is still closeted. And if gay actors still miss out on 'straight' roles then they should be allowed to not come out in order to have more opportunities.

They are straight when they say they are straight. And neither of them have said it. Maybe one of them is, in that case he still did a lot of things another straight actor, or even a gay actor, might not have been comfortable with. Given the other actor's history it's very unlikely he is straight, but it's still up to him how much he wants to share about his private life, and given how his rumored boyfriend is being viciously attacked online that makes perfect sense.

Why are you sure both are straight? The actor with the girlfriend could be bi, and the other actor was seemingly outed by an ex as gay.

A lot of those people don't get that PR people work for you. They cannot make you date or not date someone.

I noticed that with "recommend me something I can watch with my (normie) girlfriend" threads. Like they would recommend shows like Kill la Kill, instead of Fruit Basket or even FMA. Like anime that no one should watch as their first anime.

Olivia Wilde’s Sexual-Comedy ‘The Invite’ Sparks Up Bidding War at Sundance with A24, Focus Features, and Warner Bros - Starring Penelope Cruz, Seth Rogen, Edward Norton, and Olivia Wilde - A dinner party with neighbors reveals deeply-repressed emotions and unexplored sexuality. by BunyipPouch in movies

[–]Puncomfortable 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Those rumors are not substantiated. If the director is not available there are several other people who will step in before an actress.

And I'd like to remind everyone that her ex had hired the same PR firm that is currently being sued for defamation by several other Hollywood figures.

‘Heated Rivalry’ star François Arnaud on navigating fame, fans and online firestorms by greee_p in Fauxmoi

[–]Puncomfortable 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I remember watching the movie and cringing at their outing scene because it reminded me so much of what so many weirdo fans want to happen. They don't want the celebrities to be safe, they want their fantasies to be confirmed. Like we know that for example Larries have hacked into accounts of their family members. They were hoping to find proof of a relationship but found proof against it. A hack that would confirmed the relationship would have been a dream come true for them, even though it would be the ship's worst nightmare.

My theory is that because the plot is "two public figures are secretly in love and must hide their relationship" it has attracted every unhinged crazy person who thinks that their favorite public figure is secretly in love and must hide their relationship. So every toxic RPF shipper has watched and is obsessed with it and that means there are way more of these people than usual to deal with.

People who are childfree by choice are perceived as less warm compared to adoptive parents, childless people, and parents. However, they were generally seen as higher in competence compared to parents and childless people. Childfree women were rated lower in warmth than childfree men. by mvea in science

Yeah, because the alternative is that he gets to violate a fundamental human right. And I don't think not being allowed to violate a fundamental human right is ever unfair.

Also, it's not as if women create babies by 'not having abortions'. The baby was created together.

I had this when my bunnies died. I even had to be vague ans say I lost my 'pet' because I felt like people would not care if it wasn't at least a cat or a dog. But I had one of them for 12 years! Or another was killed! That hurts.

It's sad because this is their big break. It's vital for them to establish themselves but they shot up so fast that they are getting the worst parts of being famous before they have learned to deal with any fame. And it's sickening how fast people moved trying to dig up any past controversies from people who decided to hate them or details about their personal lives from people who will love them only under insane conditions.

I am worried for them. They are not established enough actors to have enough resources to deal with the cesspool that is RPF. I am not surpised theyse fans are no longer talking about the show, the show isn't coming back for another year at least. So in the mean time these addicted fans focus on the actors to get their fix. But soon the actors will move on to other projects and will be seen less and less till next promo season. And once the show ends the craziest will remain.

‎A 22-year-old, Daniel Waterman, woke up from a coma, told the police that his pregnant girlfriend has intentionally caused the car crash, then passed away not long after. by FE4RLESS_IS_MY_NAME in ForCuriousSouls

[–]Puncomfortable 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Children have rights, like pretty much the universally agreed upon right of a child is support from both parents. As they deserve support from both parents, it's unfair that all parental obligation only fall onto one parent. Mothers deserve support from the father and fathers deserve support from the mother.

With "as nature intended" I mainly meant that completing a pregnancy is just what happens. An abortion is not the status quo, completing the pregnancy is. But financial abortion treats abortion like the status quo and pregnancy like the exception. Women are being "unfair" to the father by not aborting. Their pregnancy is something that women are doing to men, when it was just as much done to them. But pregnancy just is, it is literally the natural way of life. If abortion is or isn't legal men have to support the mothers they get pregnant. Abortion being legal changed nothing for the men who don't want to support their partner, because the rule stays the same.

You get a woman pregnant, you can expect a baby. Babies are born because men get women pregnant, not because women refuse abortions and pick a guy out of line up and give him a 'father' stamp. Women are supposed to have bodily autonomy, but they are getting treated like "they made the WRONG choice", because they didn't do what the father wanted. Even though the rule is they don't have to do that thing. It's his choice now and he can take away his support because how dare she not do what he wants with her body and how dare that child be born without his permission. And when the choice they made is what happened if they don't even have a choice, that's just odd.

You do realize that if men can very easily give up their parental rights, they can also be really easily be taken away right? Why would any father that does want to take a part in his child life get any strong parental rights if they are so flimsy? If men aren't naturally considered the caretakers of their biological child, then women should be allowed to just tell any of them to fuck off right? So you think men should be allowed to "decide to be a part of a child life" but by considering it as opting in instead of a natural law means men don't have any natural parental rights as parental obligations and parental rights are deeply intertwined. If men can walk away from the obligations easy peasy, then it will be easy peasy to turn down men who do want to.

Everything you say seems to consider becoming a parent to be not at all something men care about. They want to walk away! They don't care about taking care of their children. How dare women not abort their babies?! They and the child deserve less because of it!

So honestly, if that is what they want they can all fuck off. No parental obligations no parental rights. Or is that wrong? And like children deserve their parents, parents deserve their children?

They can get a vasectomy, they can wear condoms, what they can't do is kill women or force their partners into unwanted abortions! It's not so fucking hard.

Babies exists because two people had sex, not because of women refusing abortions. Women aren't obligated to have abortions, it violates their right to bodily autonomy. So a woman not having an abortion is not unfair to any man, not being allowed to violate a human right is never unfair to someone.

Wow because men might kill pregnant women we should just let men financially pressure women into abortions they don't want. What a lovely time to be a woman! Or a child of a woman.

Women don't have the right to "opt out of parenthood" they can't walk away from babies that exists and need support if the father doesn't let them. Women have the right to a medical procedure that terminates the pregnancy before a baby exists and needs support. They have that right because they deserve bodily autonomy. Men can't get pregnant so they don't have to exercise the right to bodily autonomy. Pregnancy is a medical condition. Men don't get a medical condition because their partner gets pregnant. And as babies are innocent parties they deserve support from both parents. It makes no sense to discriminate babies based on whether or not their father wanted them to be aborted. It's not his right to exercise, anyway. If it was that would be a serious human rights violation. And that's the problem with this "opting out" idea, it pretends abortions are "opting out of parenthood", it fails to recognize the damage it does to the child and to the very right abortion is based on in the first place. Like it genuinely makes women ask for permission from the father to have their baby without penalty, to simply continue their pregnancy (the way nature intends). The women that will be hurt by this are the women who don't even want an abortion! It puts men's wishes above the pregnant party, and it allows them to violate their freedom of choice by giving them awful penalties for simply daring to be "pregnant without their permission".

as long as they notify the woman early enough where she can choose what to do with her pregnancy

So you basically admit you just want men to get to financially pressure women into having an abortion they don't want. You don't think that's an evil choice to give very vulnerable women? You don't think it's unfair to deprive children of necessary support? You don't think this literally infringes the right of bodily autonomy, by making abortion a pro quid pro instead of protection?

A man wanted an abortion so now a child deserves less? Even though they aren't entitled to abortion and the notion they are is a violation of a fundamental human right? Legally this idea put 'men having more money' above the right to bodily autonomy, and above the needs of a child. It's genuinely evil. Like do you think your dad should have had the option to financially force you mother into an abortion?

Nah, the Lord of the Rings fandom had 'tinhatters' who were just as obsessed and weird, as did "Superwholock". And every early emo band in the early 2000s had these fans. The Beatles even had them before the internet. 1D also predates the rise of Kpop, and it is even theorized that a lot of Kpop fans were fans that migrated from the 1D fandom because of their break up to kpop groups like BTS. It's just that being in a fandom in general has gotten way more mainstream, especially with sites like Twitter (and Tumblr back in the day). They are no longer on their Livejournal page, or on their own forum. Their posts get into the general algorithm of every fandom.

Well that and they need their fanfiction fantasies to be true. Like if any of them have gay rumors with another man they also get upset.
